According to experts in vaastu shastra the ideal place for a temple in a house is in the North - East direction.This direction enhances more strength and concentration. The temple should not be located in bedroom, dressing room, store, kitchen or opposite to a bathroom.

The ideal place for creating a temple in a house is in the North - East direction. It is believed that worshiping in North - East direction will enhance more strength and concentration. The location of temple in a dwelling plays a very important role.
People often tend to commit mistakes in the concept of direction of puja room. People shift their puja room to the North East corner in such a way, which can act as a blockage. North East corner of the house is considered as the most divinistic and spiritual place. moreover the puja place should be kept neat and clean.

although for a mandir all the directions are good but according to few experts in vastu shastra
The ideal place for creating a temple in a house is in the North - East direction. It is believed that worshiping in North - East direction will enhance more strength and concentration.

Sometimes, due to certain constraints, puja room cannot be placed in the North - East direction. In that case the alternative is to place it in the North - East corner of any room. It can be drawing room, dining room, study room, kid's room, or lobby etc. It should be made clear that temple should not be located in bedroom, dressing room, store, kitchen or opposite to a bathroom. The location of temple in a dwelling plays a very important role.
People often tend to commit mistakes in the concept of direction of puja room. People shift their puja room to the North East corner in such a way, which can act as a blockage. North East corner of the house is considered as the most divinistic and spiritual place. It should be open so that it can allow cosmic benedictions to enter the house. A raised platform floor or a wall can act as a blockage too. In Northeast temple, idol should be placed on a hollow platform. Otherwise NE should be kept vacant and puja room can be shifted to Northeast east. The below mentioned points should be taken into consideration:

The puja room should always be neat and clean.
It should be placed in NE or East of the building.
Ideally God should face West whereas the devotees should face East while worshipping. In public temples, God should face East while the devotee should face West.
The shape of temple can be sthandila (square), mandala (circular) or semi circular in shape. It can be of any other regular shape with no cuts and extensions.
The slope of the temple should preferably be towards NEE.
Blue, Purple or white can be used in temple.
White marble should ideally be used in the flooring.
The design pattern in the temple should have cosmic spirals as a part of the design element.
The doors and windows should be in even numbers and they should have two panels each.
There should not be a door at the back of the devotee at the time of worshipping.
The idol of God should always be kept at the eye level or above eye level but not below, so that devotees are seemed to be at a position being blessed and God must be at a position of showering blessings.
The "Vedikas" for yagnas should be placed in SE of the temple.
Water and fire should not be placed together.
Brooms should not be kept in the temple
